5 Reagents and materials
The cooling water composition of the test should reflect the likely service application For laboratory testing using synthetic water, only reagents of recognized analytical grade and only water complying with the minimum requirements of grade 3 of ISO 3696 shall be used
There are two main operating environments, which may be adopted The first is to use the make-up water as used in the specific cooling system on-site (a variation on this is to use synthetic make-up water), and concentrate it to the required number of cycles in the test system Annex A includes forms recommended for recording test conditions, compositions of make-up and recirculating water, and test results
The second approach involves using a synthetic water simulating the on-site circulating water for the required number of cycles The use of synthetic circulating water obviates the need to concentrate the synthetic water
to obtain the desired cycles of concentration This approach simplifies the test by avoiding the use of the pilot cooling tower
Synthetic circulating water will usually contain a higher level of dissolved ionic solids than corresponding natural water, thus making the synthetic water more corrosive

5.1 Water characteristics
The natural or synthetic water(s) used should be characterized as specified in Table 1.This Table should be used to record compositions of both the circulating water and the make-up water, if used Turbidity, total silica, bacteria and ATP need only be measured for on-site waters
Table 1 — Composition of make-up and circulating cooling water
No Component Value Units
a The unit of measurement will depend on the test method
5.2 Preparation of synthetic test waters using mother solutions
Synthetic test waters are normally prepared in the laboratory at the time of use by mixing mother or stock solutions One mother solution contains the alkalinity The other mother solution contains the hardness and other salts required in the test water The composition of these two solutions is calculated so that, when the solutions are mixed in the proper proportion, they prepare either the circulating test water or an appropriate make-up water Typical mother solutions are shown in B.1 Alternatively, mother solutions may be prepared as concentrates and subsequently diluted with demineralised water
Trang 11of electrically generated heat occurs through the heat-transfer tube wall into the circulating cooling water The materials-of-construction of the test assembly shall be chosen so as not to influence the composition of the test water Glass or plastic [(e.g., poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), chlorinated poly(vinyl chloride) (CPVC) or poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF)] are commonly used
From the cooling water reservoir, the cooling water is pumped through the heat exchanger section at a controlled flow rate If the heat transfer tubes are mounted in series, only one flow rate controller is required If they are mounted in parallel, one flow rate controller is required for each heat exchange tube Through partial evaporation of water in a cooling tower (6.4), the heat absorbed is subsequently released to the environment Alternatively, if a cooling tower is not required to concentrate make-up water, a closed cooling loop to extract heat is used In order to determine corrosion rates on non-heat-transfer surfaces, corrosion coupons (flush mounted probes) of the relevant metals in the system should be used
If the heat exchange tubes are mounted in parallel, simultaneous tests may be run by setting a different combination of surface temperature and flow rate for each heat exchange tube However, it is highly
recommended that all of the heat-transfer tubes be of the same metallurgical composition
6.2 Circulation-rate monitor
The circulation rate can be measured by use of a flow meter in the flow line, either preceding or following the heat exchange tubes
6.3 Make-up, evaporation and blow-down measurement
A means for measuring the mass flow of make-up, the amounts of evaporation and blow-down water (including minimum, average and maximum values) shall be established and shall be included in the test report In essence, blow-down and make-up rates can be monitored by water meters and the evaporation rate deduced Chemical feed may be based on blow-down or make-up Blow-down is normally controlled using the conductivity of the circulating water Make-up is controlled by a level controller in the cooling-tower basin
6.4 Cooling tower
The design and heat rejection capacity of the cooling tower and tower fill are optional but shall be reported Deposition of salts in the cooling tower may occur depending on the system design An example of the apparatus is described in B.2 A visual inspection of the inside of the cooling tower at the end of the test is advised

7 Test method
7.1 Procedure
7.1.1 Cleaning of the test assembly
Before starting a test, the test assembly shall be cleaned in order to prevent contamination with products from
a possible previous test or undesirable microbiological fouling
The following cleaning solutions are suggested: first, flushing with water, then flushing out with an appropriate solution, such as hypochlorite solution in the case of slime formation, sulfamic acid or citric acid and EDTA solution in the case of iron and/or calcium deposits If an acid solution is used, the system should be flushed with water, neutralized and then flushed again with water until the pH is neutral
7.1.2 Test tube preparation and pre-treatment
Measure and record the length of the test tubes on a test data sheet
The surface state of the metal tubes under test will have a significant influence on corrosion and fouling The method of surface preparation shall ensure good repeatability and the surface shall be free of artefacts from the preparation process The surface preparation method used should adhere to the supplier's instructions for the product that is to be tested The following information is optional for the test procedure, but it is necessary
to adopt a standard pre-treatment and preparation procedure for the test tubes
a) Degrease the test tubes internally and externally with acetone
b) Subsequently, blast-clean the test tubes externally with abrasive to preparation grade Sa3 (in accordance
with ISO 8501-1) and to a roughness, Ra, of approximately 2,5 µm Alternatively, abrade using SiC paper
of grade P400 (For some metals with certain pretreatments, abrasion may not be appropriate.)
c) Clean the test tubes by blowing with compressed air and weigh, to at least an accuracy of 0,01 g, and install them in the tubes of the heat exchanger (6.1) Record the mass of each test tube on a test data sheet
d) The tubes may be tested with or without pre-treatment It is frequently considered desirable to test in both conditions, in order to determine quantitatively the value of pre-treatment Pre-treatment is accomplished
by continuous circulation of the pre-film solution, specified by the water treatment vendor through the test tubes at room temperature for a minimum of 48 h and a maximum of 72 h, with a circulation flow rate of at least 0,6 m/s and without heating
Pre-treatment of the test tubes may be carried out in the test assembly itself, or in a separate circuit connected to the test assembly
7.1.3 System water content
The total water volume of the cooling water reservoir, heat exchangers and piping of the system shall be measured and reported
7.1.4 Procedure to fill the cooling water system
7.1.4.1 Using synthetic circulating test water made from mother solutions (no cooling tower)
Mix mother solutions as described in 5.2 so as to achieve the required cooling water quality, the parameters of which are given in Table 1 Fill the cooling water reservoir with the synthetic water and the solution of chemical treatment additives in accordance with the supplier's instructions
Start the circulation pump and adjust it so as to achieve the required circulation flow rate (see 6.2) Drain off at least five times the water content of the heat exchanger section from the system to ensure removal of artefacts from surface pre-treatment Start the dosing device and set the dose level to the prescribed values
Trang 13`,,```,,,,````-`-`,,`,,`,`,,` -ISO 16784-2:2006(E)
(see 7.1.9) Then allow the cooling water to circulate normally, set the heater to the selected value of heat input, and balance this with the heat extracted in the cooling circuit Once this has been achieved, record the
time as the starting time of the test (t = 0)
NOTE It is desirable to have set-up the test rig and controls to establish the required steady state-conditions using dummy heat-exchanger test tubes, before starting a proper test run
7.1.4.2 Using make-up water (cooling tower required)
In this case, the make-up water (either by mixing synthetic mother solutions or using make-up water obtained on-site) is concentrated by evaporation in the model cooling tower to achieve the required composition before the start of the test period
Fill the cooling water reservoir with the make-up water and the solution of chemical treatment additives in accordance with the supplier's instructions Start the circulation pump and adjust it so as to achieve the required circulation flow rate (see 6.2) Drain off at least five times the water content of the heat exchanger section from the system prior to this water reaching the cooling tower to ensure removal of artefacts from surface pre-treatment
Set the heater to the selected value of heat input and monitor the conductivity of the water until the correct cycles of concentration are obtained Then start the blow-down pump and adjust to the appropriate blow-down rate (see 6.3) Start the dosing device and set the dose level to the prescribed values (see 7.1.9) Then allow the cooling water to circulate normally, set the heater to the selected value of heat input and record the time
as the starting time of the test (t = 0)
NOTE It is desirable to have set-up the test rig and controls to establish the required steady-state conditions using dummy heat-exchanger test tubes, before starting a proper test run
7.1.5 Heating the test tubes
The duty of the heating elements and the heat flux used should be chosen to represent particular service conditions A suitable apparatus is described in B.3
7.1.6 Flow rate
The recirculation flow rate measured in the circuit external to the heat-exchange tube section by the flow meter (6.2) shall be set high enough so that no overheating of test tubes occurs but not too high so that excessive turbulent water flow occurs within the tubes (A flow rate of 0,6 ± 1 m/s has been found to be suitable.)
The flow rate and Reynolds number along the test surface shall be determined
The following procedure shall be used as an option to set the flow rate: the cooling water velocity (volumetric flow rate) in the annular space along the test tubes can be calculated by the formula
φcirc is the circulation flow rate, expressed in cubic meters per second (m3/s);
v is the average cooling water velocity in the annular space, expressed in metres per second (m/s);
D is the internal diameter of the glass tube, expressed in metres (m);
d is the external diameter of the metal test tube, expressed in metres (m)
